New to Disney+ in December

Disney+ will herald Christmas with a slate teeming with premieres, including the movies Soul and Mulan.

Mulan has been available to stream as the platform’s first premium video-on-demand title but subscribers will be able to view it in up to 4K-UHD for free from December 4.

Disney has yet to report on whether the PVOD strategy was a financial success but won’t be going the same route with Soul: it will be available to all subscribers from December 25.

Disney+ also will add season one of Marvel’s Runaways and a slew of movies and specials from the vault.

Here’s the full line-up
